The visual angle metric and Möbius transformations

Abstract: A new similarity invariant metric

v_{G}

is introduced. The visual angle metric

v_{G}

is defined on a domain

G s u b s e t n e q R n

whose boundary is not a proper subset of a line. We find sharp bounds for

v_{G}

in terms of the hyperbolic metric in the particular case when the domain is either the unit ball

B n

or the upper half space

H n

. We also obtain the sharp Lipschitz constant for a M"obius transformation

f : G i g h t a r r o w G^{'}

between domains

G

and

G^{'}

in

R n

with respect to the metrics

v_{G}

and

v_{G^{'}}

. For instance, in the case

G = G^{'} = B n

the result is sharp.
